Metabolic Heat Production, Heat Loss and the Circadian Rhythm of Body Temperature in the Rat

Abstract: Metabolic heat production (calculated from oxygen consumption), dry heat loss (measured in a calorimeter) and body temperature (measured by telemetry) were recorded simultaneously at 6 min intervals over five consecutive days in rats maintained in constant darkness. Robust circadian rhythmicity (confirmed by chi square periodogram analysis) was observed in all three variables. The rhythm of heat production was phase‐advanced by about half an hour in relation to the body temperature rhythm, whereas the rhythm o… Show more

“…The mating duration (the period that males were left with the females) was a minimum of 8days (N=11/26 mice) but was longer when the females did not initially show signs they were pregnant. The actual day of pregnancy was retrospectively counted backwards from the day of parturition (day 0) following the numbering system used previously (Johnson et al, 2001a It is well established that physical activity can cause elevated body temperature (Brown and Refinetti, 1996;De Castro, 1978;Franken et al, 1992;Kent et al, 1991;Refinetti, 1994;Refinetti, 2003;Refinetti, 2010;Weinert and Waterhouse, 1998). In addition to measuring the overall mean body temperature, we were interested in the temperature at which the mice were physically active and that when they were at rest.…”

“…In addition, lactating rodents reduce wheel-running activity and spontaneous locomotor activity (Scribner and Wynne-Edwards, 1994;Speakman et al, 2001;Weinandy and Gattermann, 1995;Zhao et al, 2013a), and thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) is also suppressed Trayhurn, 1983;Trayhurn and Jennings, 1987). During physical activity, heat production is elevated (Refinetti, 2003;Weinert and Waterhouse, 1998). Reductions in physical activity during lactation may therefore serve to reduce this competitive heat load.…”

“…Durante a expiração pelo nariz, a energia térmica contida no ar é passada para a mucosa nasal por meio de um sistema de contracorrente e, então ela é conservada, ao passo que, a expiração pela boca evita que o calor do ar seja retido nas vias nasais, contribuindo para a sua dissipação de forma mais eficiente. Além disso, a exposição da língua ao ar, no caso dos cães, por exemplo, favorece a evaporação da água da saliva e todos estes mecanismos cooperam para a redução da energia corpórea (SCHMIDT-NIELSEN e col., 1970;RANDALL, 1997 (REFINETTI 2003(REFINETTI , 2006.…”

“…As razões de todas estas diferenças parecem ser os mecanismos termorreguladores predominantes em cada fase do dia em que o animal é submetido à baixa pressão parcial de O 2 . Segundo Refinetti (2003; Fig. 1), os ritmos de produção de calor, Tc e perda de calor em ratos são deslocados, sendo que o pico da termogênese precede o pico da Tc que, por sua vez, é seguido pelo pico da perda de calor.…”
